Intrommune Reports Positive Update from Ongoing Phase 1 Study in Peanut Allergy

NEW YORK, Feb. 08, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Intrommune Therapeutics, Inc., a New York-based, clinical stage biotechnology company developing a patient-friendly treatment platform for peanut and other food allergies, today announced an initial update from its ongoing Phase 1 OMEGA Trial of INT301 in patients with peanut allergy. INT301 is a novel peanut desensitization immunotherapy formulated as a fully-functioning toothpaste and conveniently administered during a patient’s daily toothbrushing routine. “After acceptance of our IND for INT301, we launched and completed Cohort 1 of our Phase 1 OMEGA Clinical Study last year in adults with peanut allergy. While the study remains blinded, there were no significant adverse events in any patient,” said Michael Nelson, CEO, Intrommune Therapeutics. “We believe that these results support the potential for oral mucosal immunotherapy (OMIT) to be a safe and convenient option for people with food allergies.”
